RURIC: Ruric considering exercising first-right-of-refusal on Fontanka 57


PRESS RELEASE / August 02, 2012

Ruric considering exercising first-right-of-refusal on Fontanka 57

Ruric is considering exercising its first-right-of-refusal on Fontanka 57 from
Scorpio. To secure a fast and efficient completion of the building to
a letable state, full financing is of great importance. Larger bondholders such
as Alecta, Proventus who earlier blocked Fontanka 57 deal, have presently
contacted Ruric with the proposal to allow additional borrowings to partially
finance the first-right-of-refusal. However Ruric believes that the suggested
level of borrowings is not enough and therefore requested from the bondholders
the approval to raise bigger amount which may allow financing both the
acquisition and development of Fontanka 57.


The first-right-of-refusal from Scorpio expires August 12th.
